"Just like a page-turner, this smart comedy pulls you in and keeps you wondering what's coming next" with "two lively, lusty, and fully lived-in characters," said the NY Daily News and Entertainment Weekly about the original Off-Broadway production.

How far will you go to get what you want? Will you be the same person if you do? When twenty-something sex blogger and best-selling memoirist Ethan tracks down his idol, the gifted but obscure forty-ish novelist Olivia, he finds they each crave what the other possesses. As attraction turns to passion, and they inch closer to getting what they want, both must confront the dark side of ambition and the difficulty of reinventing oneself when the past is only a click away.

Featuring Dexter Hostetter and Lin McEwan.

“Coconuts donʻt fall from the tree!”

“Based on the foundation of a multigenerational family tribute, White Hawaiian embraces a dizzying array of comedic caricatures, Chaplinesque slapstick, moving drama, multiple hit musical highlights and non-stop laugh-out-loud moments, along with some Hawaiian cultural history. All wrapped up with a knockout performance by its star.”

—Maui News

This smart and witty one-man show debuted at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center in late 2019 to rave reviews and three sell-out runs. We are so happy to bring the White Hawaiian to the ProArts Playhouse in Kihei for a three-month residency starting July 2022.

An entertaining autobiographical stage-show that covers the career of Eric Gilliom, his Maui upbringing as a Caucasian with Hawaiian roots and the TV, film, and Broadway roles that have given him hilarious stories to share.

Furiously donning outlandish wigs with gaudy costumes, the story unfolds from his great grandparent’s to his grandparent’s on down to his parents then seamlessly into growing up with his six-time Grammy nominated sister, Amy Hānaialiʻi Gilliom.

The reliving of his career, highlights and follies, make the full circle story even more rich and entertaining.

“If they ever invented a Hōkū for musical theater, Gilliom would win it hands down.”
— Jon Woodhouse, Maui News

Presented by ProArts and Oh Boy Productions
Written by Matthew Spangler
Directed by Vinnie Linares
Starring Frank Kane

An encore performance of the 2019 production awarded by the Maui News as the "Best Play" and "Best Actor" of that year. And written by Maui's own Matthew Spangler, whose The Kite Runner is currently running on Broadway. 

This fast-paced adventure story explores the themes of regret, isolation and the interconnected relationship between human beings and the natural world we inhabit. It takes its inspiration from Coleridge’s Mariner, an 18th-century sailor who is cursed with immortality and is thrust into the modern world. Written and performed as a rollicking sea yarn, Albatross delivers a profound and relevant message about mindfulness and the effect of our thoughtless actions on all living things. The audience sets sail in a spare but visually thrilling stagecraft, powered by the latest multimedia technology. Immersed in this sensory otherworld, audiences come to find out who the Mariner is, why he must forever tell his story, and what he is searching for as he roams the earth.

Written by Kate Hamill
Based on the novel by Jane Austen
Directed by Lin McEwan

This isn’t your grandmother’s Austen! Bold, surprising, boisterous, and timely, this P&P for a new era explores the absurdities and thrills of finding your perfect (or imperfect) match in life. The outspoken Lizzy Bennet is determined to never marry, despite mounting pressure from society. But can she resist love, especially when that vaguely handsome, mildly amusing, and impossibly aggravating Mr. Darcy keeps popping up at every turn?! Literature’s greatest tale of latent love has never felt so theatrical, or so full of life than it does in this effervescent adaptation. Because what turns us into greater fools…than the high-stakes game of love?
